I'm here for the gang bang.
P.S. I'm my own tuner (Tuner DP) and have only myself to blame if something goes south. Man up or get out. Stock stuff breaks. Modified stuff breaks more frequently.
LOL@MBC. Might as well use a carburator while your at it. ECU controlled timing?? What a joke. That's what distributors are for. Duh.

You're probably talking about Ed's road dyno software so this is a bit un-related, but: all dyno's, including Pauls can be manipulated to read higher or lower. Thats why its just a tool and one set of dyno numbers should never be compared to the other. Track is the real indicator of power/speed.

Every dyno I have ever used is simple to manipulate in one way or another.

As I said he is 100% correct, I know of several shops using Mustang dyno's whose numbers pretty much replicate those of a Dyno-Jet, did it come that way from Mustang hell no they changed either the parasitics file or the pressure ratio to bring their numbers inline with what used to be perceived as the industry standard.
FWIW I don't think any of the Nor Cal tuners mess around with their readings too appease their customers, I know it's not been done here other than the time I wanted to know how it could be done and see if I could hit 1000whp on a NA 350z one night (1037whp stock Z FTW!)
